It’s been nearly three years since Prey was released on Hulu, but the wait is finally over. Predator fans can now add another set of detailed merch to their collection with Funko’s batch of Pops honoring the 2022 spin-off film. It’s already been a great year for the Predator, with Killers of Killers nabbing franchise-best reviews, and it is only set to get even better.
Funko has announced that they are releasing two new Pops for Prey, and, of course, they are based on the most prominent characters in the film. Naru, played by Amber Midthunder, finally gets her own Pop figure, and she is joined by her on-screen dog, Sari. The impressive details include some glow-in-the-dark goo, remnants of her bloody battle against her alien adversary. Speaking of which, Prey fans can also own the Feral Predator, based on the film’s unique design for the Yautja. Both figures cost $14.99 and will be available on Funko.com. You can check them out below.

Predator Battles a Kaiju in Action-Packed First Trailer for ‘Predator: Badlands’
The first trailer for Dan Trachtenberg’s next ‘Predator’ film is unlike anything we’ve seen from the series.
Prey was released exclusively on Hulu on August 5, 2022. It did not take long for critics and audiences to fall in love with the Predator offshoot, which boasts a 94% Certified Fresh score on Rotten Tomatoes. Prey is now widely regarded as the best entry in the franchise since the 1987 original film starring Arnold Schwarzenegger. Director Dan Trachtenberg has taken the long-standing film series in a bold new direction, and one that continues to pay dividends if Killer of Killers is any indication. In addition to Amber Midthunder, the cast of Prey features Dakota Beavers as Taabe, Dane DiLiegro as Feral Predator, Michelle Thrush as Aruka, Julian Black Antelope as Chief Kehetu and Stormee Kipp as Wasape. Read the film’s official synopsis:
Set in the Comanche Nation 300 years ago, ‘Prey’ is the story of a young woman, Naru, a fierce and highly skilled warrior. She has been raised in the shadow of some of the most legendary hunters who roam the Great Plains, so when danger threatens her camp, she sets out to protect her people. The prey she stalks, and ultimately confronts, turns out to be a highly evolved alien predator with a technically advanced arsenal, resulting in a vicious and terrifying showdown between the two adversaries.
Is Naru Making a ‘Predator’ Return?
During an interview for her 2025 action flick Novocaine, Amber Midthunder spoke about a potential return as Naru in a Prey sequel, or in another entry in the Predator franchise. While the character ended up making a cameo appearance in Killer of Killers, it is still unclear when or if she will have a significant role in a new Predator story. Midthunder seemed to be as out of the loop as the fans, but it is clear that she is more than down to reprise her fan-favorite Comanche warrior.
“I don’t know. I don’t know what’s happening. [Laughs] I genuinely don’t. I also want to do another one. I would be happy to do another one. I love Dan Trachtenberg with my whole heart. I love that world, I love that character, and I think that there’s some fun ideas out there that I’ve heard that are very cool. I’m really excited. He obviously has Badlands coming out this year, so I’m really excited to see that. Whatever Dan does, I will always be his fan.”
While a Prey sequel is up in the air, director Dan Trachtenberg already has his next Predator film set for release later this year. Starring a Yautja as the protagonist, Predator: Badlands heads into uncharted territory in theaters on November 7, 2025.
